Yes the court is the biggest, clearest, most enduring victory by far (though also something of a fluke of timing/luck.)

Alexander Ross

Three nominees to the Supreme Court. That's a political success, and that's the political success that Hillary Clinton voters were warning everybody about.

I disagree slightly. My American history teacher drummed it into my head: Every election is about the courts. Every single election. Any time someone to the left of center sits the election out for reasons, they are handing another few dozen appointments to the enemy.

You want votes? Earn them! This blaming the voters narrative of yours has gotten old and won't work anymore.

I am never sure when you’re going to pop up. Always a pleasure to know your point of view is well represented. 😘

Ответ для I am Sofa King

Fuck—and I cannot stress this enough—you. You deserve that blame, yet it sounds like despite how many people have been harmed or killed, you refuse to own the part you played. Grow up and vote like a goddamned adult who can count, not a spoiled, privileged child.

You are sofa ked in da hed

I’m of two minds here. On the one hand, it’s everyone’s right to not vote if they don’t want to. On the other, a leftist who won’t vote for a center-left candidate can’t complain when their far-right opponent wins & enacts far-right policies. You get what you vote for, even if you don’t vote.

Ответ для tomhoefwrites

The 2-party system sucks, but that’s what we have right now. If a Dem centrist loses the far-right candidate will win, so a no-vote for the Dem is basically a vote for the far right. That person is saying they’d rather have a fascist in power than a left-leaning moderate. Well, congrats. You got it.

Ответ для tomhoefwrites

There both far-right and I don't vote for the right.

Ответ для I am Sofa King

First of all, I didn’t give specific examples. My example has a moderate/centrisrt and someone on the far right. Second, if we’re talking specifically Trump/Harris, Harris is decidedly not far-right, so now you’re just creating a fictional reality in your head to justify your decisions.

Ответ для tomhoefwrites

shes far right off the concervative scale offf the nazi scale alkl the way to the blood soaked fasciust maniac side of the scalk. ANd so are the rtest of you poerverts. You ran on teling us to go to bed and take drugs! You wanto rapoe us.

Ответ для tomhoefwrites

Harris was absolutely right of center. She promised to be a continuation of Biden complete with genocide, corporatism, and no fundamental change. That's a conservative platform.

Ответ для I am Sofa King

Look, it’s your individual right to decide that & feel that way. My only criticism to anyone would be: you don’t get to complain about Trump’s specific actions & court appointments, if your non-vote for Harris helped put him in power. And maybe you don’t complain about Trump. 🤷‍♂️

Ответ для tomhoefwrites

Harris didn't win a primary. Harris didn't attempt to earn my vote. Your party is the reason trump has been President twice, so save your BS.

Ответ для I am Sofa King

It’s not my party. I’m an independent. But technically? Political parties can choose their candidates anyway they want. They don’t HAVE to have a national primary. There was no law outlawing a party just choosing their candidate at a political convention.

Ответ для tomhoefwrites

Then blame the party and their choice, not the voters. You can't claim to fight fascism while picking candidates without voter any input.

Ответ для tomhoefwrites

All I’m saying is: choosing to NOT vote for Harris — again, your right — was a half-vote for Trump because we have a broken two-party system that only offers only two winnable options. Which is bad, but which is also currently reality. So if you chose NOT to vote Harris that’s 50% a vote for Trump.

Ответ для tomhoefwrites

And the electorate in a lot of places is swinging further to the left a lot faster than the mainstream the DNC, that’s for sure. Which moves the so-called “center” further left, too.

it turned democrtats against war over night, And if yoiu underastand just how ssick extoirtiuonistrs are, thats worth it.

When both parties held comey abve the law fopr cheating agaist hillarty we won the right to blame your whole nazi country. Its not a cemocracy its a police state no metter who the current clown is is. Yur copuntry did this, yourp[artioes are a lie and your courts are a lie

Ответ для 🏴‍☠️Rich Graham🕉︎

we can blame your nazi country dfor whatevert your favorite poervert that yiour death cult picked does

Ответ для I am Sofa King

This just oozes of privilege. I hope the people in ice concentration camps, minorities losing their scholarships and military promotions, and trans people without rights can appreciate how clear your conscious is not voting for Harris aka genocidal Biden 2.0. Sleep tight.

Ответ для I am Sofa King

"Even if my one vote could have prevented a fascist from becoming president, I would not have voted for the center left candidate because it is more moral for me to *only* vote for a candidate I completely agree with than to prevent the murder of Renee Good, Alex Pretti, Joan Sebastien Guerrero..."

Ответ для I am Sofa King

You're an unserious asshole. I know because in 2000, *I* was that unserious asshole. "No difference between Gore & Bush," I said, as I volunteered for & voted for Nader. Had Gore won, no Iraq war, no John Roberts & Alito on the court & none of their horrible decisions. I learned my lesson.

Ответ для Hank Hoffman

Imagine that one vote stopping the appointment of three justices who have turned the Supreme Court into a civil rights gutting institution. For POC, women, LGBTQ+, children, immigrants, children of immigrants... Sofa has purity, I guess. And we all live with the carnage.

Ответ для westvillagecrank

LOL!

Ответ для Hank Hoffman

I love your voter outreach. I believe you can get trump elected to a third term with your poise and civility. 🤡

Ответ для I am Sofa King

Yeah that attitude is pure decadence. And the decadent government we now have reflects the decadence of all the voters and potential voters.

Ответ для Rams and Hoosiers

Democracy is "decadent" to you? What authoritarian country are you from?

Ответ для I am Sofa King

No, the attitude that you can just sit out an election if you don’t like the choices and hold no responsibility for the outcome.

Ответ для Rams and Hoosiers

You really hate democracy.

Ответ для I am Sofa King

No, I hate adult children who refuse to accept responsibility or consequences for their actions or can’t think past their own nose.

Ответ для Rams and Hoosiers

My vote, my choice. Go move to Russia.

Ответ для Rams and Hoosiers
